Has anyone noticed lately how some men's suit jackets just don't fit??

Mostly I've noticed this with newscasters or weather forecasters.

Has anyone gotten calls from 888-888-8888?

I never ever answer but I find the mere fact that I receive calls every day a bit creepy.

My cats are driving me crazy!!

Maybe not crazy, but I'm heading in the direction of the nearest poorhouse for sure.

I have two kittens who have the habit of licking up all the gravy from the food I give them and then just walking away. (Actually they're 1.5 years old.) Does anyone have a solution to this problem? It's not an unusual one, I understand.

At least twice a day I have the disgusting task of throwing away the meaty bits they don't eat.

Any advice would be appreciated.
